Subject: gis.m: d.text.freetype does not allow spaces in text
Platform: GNU/Linux/x86
grass obtained from: CVS
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources
GRASS Version: cvs_head_20060724
As the postscript text layers do not survive saving the map display to a graphics file, I am trying to use d.text.freetype as a command.
This works perfectly until the text I want to display contains spaces. When I use the following command line:
d.text.freetype -n -b text="Population totale" east_north=2,95 size=3 col=black path=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bitstream-vera/Vera.ttf
I get:
Sorry <totale"> is not a valid option
I have tried with single quotes and brackets, but I get the same error.

Using braces works, i.e.
d.text.freetype -n -b {text=Population totale} ...
There doesn't appear to actually be a space, but the same problem
occurs when running d.text.freetype from the command line, i.e. it's a
problem with d.text.freetype.

Moritz,
If you save as EPS, the postscript text will save too.

But then you lose transparency...
